I did a fraction more than just "ask", Rob. I don't know if it will do any good, but I couldn't let it roll through any longer the way it was going. I want you, Zigbert, trio and 01micko to know that, whatever else is said by the vocal minority around here, I appreciate all the effort you guys have put into the 4.2 project and it WILL be reflected in the product I release.

Sometimes members of the Puppy forum community forget that there are way more users of Puppy than the ones who post here regularly. One such user has only posted 7 times since 2005, and another was recently prompted to make only his second post since he started using Puppy 2.xx some time back. There are many more that have never posted and one of those has recently written the best review of Puppy's capabilities I have yet seen. We really are only the very tip of the iceberg here (analogy especially for Sigmund ).

That should give you guys heart; to know that your hard work will NOT go unrecognised and nor will the harmony and support you share in the Pwidgets team. Thank you all for that._________________Actions speak louder than words ... and they usually work when words don't!

The 'fun' was going out of it for us and I'm enjoying it so much just now.

Zigberts contributions when I look thru Puppy are very numerous and not to be derided. I think he writes succinct code.

In the 'old' days when ram was precious you were taught to do things miserly. I once managed to fit a simple word processor and printer routine in 5k. Even then I was told it was too flashy _________________Rob

Yes, I remember. I learned serious programming in VAXBasic using a VT100 terminal and a maximum of 32k of space for both compiler and program code. We considered ourselves "spoiled" at having so much room to work when the entire main frame hard drive was only 5Mb. _________________Actions speak louder than words ... and they usually work when words don't!

At the moment I've had to do a fresh RC2 install due to a corrupted pupsave. Not sure what happened but 1.9.9 seemed to fall out with me.

I'm on 1.9.5. not changing anything until I reload my widgets.

I lost Moon and Alarm development work. But this morning found copies on my Win PC, not quite up to date but still workable. Alarm though well behind what i had done, virtual restart._________________Rob

2 clocks is possible because of /root/Startup/. Trio pointed that the startup scripts are executed alphabetically so 'show_widgets' is not the best name. Changed to 0_show_widgets. If you upgrade an already installed Pwidgets, you'll now have 2 startup scripts. No problem for Puppy 4.2.
